I totally agree, quality of life is what its about! Normally moderate activity doesn't bother me, but I literally cannot sit for 5 miuntes wihtout the onset of pain. Maybe over time things will get better.
I wish I had a more definite timeline regarding the steps the docs want to take regarding my care - ex. after so many months wihtout improvement we will try "X" and if that doesn't work so many weeks later we will try "Y" eventaully leading to surgery if necessary. I think I struggle living with the feeling of living this way of an indefinite period of time.
I also know that there is a psychological factor to this situation, I simply have to try to work to focus on all the great htings I have and stay positive so that I do not stand in the way of my own recovery - any thoughts on this?
Hope everyone is having a great day!
